Cheesy Veggie Quesadillas - as easy as a child's play
All through
the year, kids look forward to their summer vacation. When it comes, they
become so happy that they become hyper active and tend to go out of bounds. As
a working mom, my job to keep them engaged with studies, activities &
games, is getting tougher day by day.
My elder
daughter Kuhu, who is normally a well-behaved 8 year old, keeps on jumping on
her toes during these days, as if her feet are tied on spring boards. One of
her new found passion this vacation has been spending time in kitchen with me.
She would watch me intently and try to help me by running errands.
The other
day, she came running to me saying that she had just watched a cookery program
in TV where they showed how to cook Quesadillas. She was very excited and
almost forced me to agree to her demand that we would prepare Quesadillas at
home and …………….………she would help me in cooking actively.
Well, it
turned out to be a really enjoyable experience. Except for cutting and frying,
she did all the hard work including kneading dough, cutting in shapes, making
the parcels and sealing them at the ends. The Quesadillas were fabulous and
both my daughters enjoyed eating them as evening snacks.
